Despite the many advantages this technique offers, there remains some concern that radial artery occlusion, a potential complication of radial cannulation, might lead to significant ischemic sequelae in the hand. This paper reviews the major causes, its possible consequences and the strategies for its prevention and treatment. It appears however from multiple studies that there is little or no correlation between radial occlusion and symptomatic hand ischemia. This review article aim to highlight the right ventricular function peri left ventricular assist device implantation, and to assess the incidence, physiopathology, predictors, management and prognosis, of right ventricular failure post-implant. OBJECTIVES The objective of our work is to identify the risk factors for hospital mortality during pulmonary embolism in a pneumology department. MATERIAL AND METHOD All patients admitted to the pneumology department of Habib-Bourguiba hospital between 2014 and 2019, with a final diagnosis of PE are analyzed. RESULTS One hundred patients were included, 62% of whom were female, with an average age of 63±16 years. Pulmonary fibrosis was noted in eight patients. On admission, the mean Simplified Pulmonary Embolism Severity Index score was 1.46±1.05. The mean duration of hospitalization was 10.6±7 days. The hospital mortality rate was 12%. The independent risk factors for intra-hospital mortality were arterial hypotension (OR 6.13; 95%CI 2.88-14.35; p=0.001), cancer (OR 2.66; 95%CI 1.22-9.54; p=0.026), a VD/LV ratio at echocardiography>0.9 (OR 1.84; 95%CI 1.06-7.69; p=0.039) and severe hypoxemia (OR 4.86; 95%CI 2.19-11,34; p=0.006). CONCLUSION Pulmonary embolism mortality remains high despite improvements in diagnostic and therapeutic management. It is important for our country to take these results into consideration
